Aw, he his just sooo gorgeous. How old is he?

I have had the same thing happen to me. My pakastani loach used to suck babies out of the slits in the trap at night. I used to put some weed in the trap so the babies can hide in it. I have now bought myself a breeding trap that is made of netting, so that the other fish cannot get at the...

I live in a hard water area and all my fish are thriving in my tank! You can see in my signature what fish I have!

My male mollies chase each other and try to mate with one another. I dont think they can tell the difference!

Guppies are really easy to breed, the only rule of thumb is that you have two females to one male so the females do not get harrassed so much by the males. You can pretty much leave them to it and before long you will have babies.

Hi Joe welcome to the forum. Nice fish by the way! :good:

Hi Quietriot, your tank looks fantastic, you have some lovely looking fish in there too.

Do you have any friends with tanks? If so you could give some to them. Thats what I end up doing with my baby mollies and platties.

How about adding some penguin tetras or some harlequin rasboras? I have both these in my tank and they both have shoaling habits.

Don't worry Jacob, i had exactly the same problem when I first attempted to use my gravel vacuum. It is not as easy as it looks!

How gorgeous are they!

I have a yoyo loach, I love the way he lays on his side as if he is having a nap! The first time he did this I thought he was dead! Then I read some where that this is common in loaches. I also have 3 clown loaches and they also do this! Nice pictures by the way!

Bristlenose plecs would be the best for your size tank. These grow to about 4 inches.

Hi welcome to the forum EVOGT :)

How about some harlequin rasboras or some penguin tetras? I have both these in my tank with some neon tetras and they all shoal in their groups.

Hi John, welcome to the forum. You will certainly obtain plenty of advice and information here! :)

I also have an 80L tank and I feed cucumber twice a week to my bristlenose. My clown loaches also like it. I leave it in overnight and take it out next morning.

Well done on saving so many fry. I have been nurturing 10 baby platies in my breeding trap for the last 5 weeks and decided that today was the day to release them into my main tank. I put them into the tank and watched in horror as my Angel fish ate some of them. :sad: I felt really awful...

Hi kat, welcome to the forum :)

Hi Mooster, welcome to the forum :)

I lost a clown loach 2 days after buying it. I thought that it had died and that the other fish had eaten it as I found a body of a fish lodged into my airflow pipe. A week later when I was doing a water change I took out the filter sponges which are situated in a compartment at the back of my...

Welcome to the forum, sorry you have got off to such a bad start. :(

Hi dyingfishspotter, congratulations on your fry! You might want to invest in a fish net breeder to put your babies in so that you can save a few from being eaten! :nod:

Hi and welcome Steve! :rolleyes:

Welcome I am a newbie too! :rolleyes:
